Process
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks.
The interview process was a great experience, with Liam acting as my main point of contact. He was always ready to answer any questions I had, which was greatly appreciated. After the initial call with Liam, I had a more technical call with a Senior Solution Architect. He explained the different challenges and technologies that the team employs on a day-to-day basis, which was really insightful.
What followed was a coding challenge that, despite being in a language I was less familiar with, turned out to be an engaging learning experience. I was provided with ample resources to get me up to speed and approach the challenge with my best foot forward. In the final interview, I presented a recent technical project I worked on, facilitating a detailed and engaging discussion with the team's Senior Solution Architect and the Solution Architecture Lead. The conversation was constructive, and many questions were asked about my design choices and methodologies. It not only allowed them to understand my perspective better, but it created a space where I could learn from their feedback and even gain some knowledge on topics like the Linux filesystem cache, which I found to be really interesting.
Looking back, the entire process was seamless and genuinely enjoyable, leaving me excited to commence with Quantexa. A big thank you to Liam and the team for the support and patience throughout this process!

- 3.0Smart colleagues but stagnant company culture and cutsSenior Data Engineer • Current EmployeeLondon, EnglandAugust 26, 2026Pros: It is a fairly relaxed place of work with some genuinely clever people who are often the smartest people in the room.Cons: Company is desperate to IPO, they're cutting back on employee benefits, announcing an RTO mandate with 2 years notice to try and get people to jump ship, and genuinely feels like a place becoming stagnant. The sheer bloat of management is becoming obscene with new VPs added every few months for no discernible reason. They also have lost several really important technical individuals from the RnD department in recent years and aren't particularly motivated to keep talent. The RnD division has been faltering for a while, and despite spurious claims of doubled productivity there seems to be virtually no output or progress of that department.
